This paper studies fictitious play in networks of noncooperative two-person games. We show that continuous … convergence is 1/T, regardless of the size of the network. In contrast, arbitrary n-person zero-sum games with bilinear payoff … functions do not possess the continuous-time fictitious-play property. As extensions, we consider networks in which each …

The paper analyzes a dynamic model of rational strategic learning in a network. It complements existing literature by … network. We show that the delay in information transmission caused by incomplete network structures may induce players to … increase own experimentation efforts. As a consequence a complete network can fail to be optimal even if there are no costs for …

e study whether maximum efficiency can be obtained in a stochastic learning model where players can actively form links with a limited number of peers to play a size-dependent minimum-effort game. The long-run equilibrium is contingent on the linking constraint and the marginal payoff from...

We provide an overview and synthesis of the literatures analyzing games in which players are connected via a network … structure. We discuss, in particular, the impact of the structure of the network on individuals' behaviors. We focus on game …

This paper studies a non-cooperative model of network formation. Built upon the two-way flow model of Bala and Goyal … number of his links. This assumption results in the fact that a large set of Nash networks are disconnected and consist of … components of different sizes, a feature that resembles that of real-world networks. Discussions on this insight are provided …

This paper brings together analyses of two-way flow Strict Nash networks under exclusive player heterogeneity … two assumptions influence important properties of Strict Nash networks. Built upon the findings of Billand et al (2011 …, I provide a proposition that generalizes the results of these two models by stating that: (i) Strict Nash network …

I do so by extending the two-way flow network with small decay of De Jaegher and Kamphorst (J ECON BEHAV ORGAN, 2015 …). Results of this extension shows that the effects of value heterogeneity on Strict Nash networks, when small decay is present …
